Gender inequality

• Over 110 million children in the world don’t go to school. About 70% of these are girls.
• 66% of the world’s 775 million illiterate adults are women.
• 70% of the poorest people in the world are female.
• Women hold only 14% of parliamentary seats in the world.
• Only 8% of the world’s government ministers are women.
• Women do 66% of the world’s working hours and produce 50% of the world’s food, but they only earn 10% of the world’s income and they own less than 1% of the world’s property.
• In the UK, 66% of managers are men and 81% of secretaries are women.
• In big companies in the UK, 83% of directors are men and 95% of receptionists are women.
